This might be the worst anime I've ever completed.

I'll start off by saying that one reason I started this anime was because I learned it was based off of a manga done by the same author who wrote Future Diary/Mirai Nikki. That show was one I found rather enjoyable, so I gave this a watch. In Deus' name, I was wrong. This show starts off promising with the first couple of episodes, but it begins going downhill by the third episode and launches itself off a cliff entirely by the seventh episode or so.

Let's start off with the characters. They're some of the worst. Only a couple have a discernible personality, and this is out of a rather large cast. Few of them are memorable, and some of those few are memorable for the wrong reasons (there is a man whose head resembles a 2 x 4 piece of wood; he falls on the wrong side of memorable). The main character is an idiot. He has few, if any, redeeming qualities to him, and no matter what good he does, he goes out and does something mind-bendingly stupid to undo it all. His sister may be worse as a character, but I'll leave that for you to decide.

Big Order's story started off rather interesting, but it only took four episodes for me to lose interest. By the fifth or sixth episode, I just watched it for some of the "so bad, it's good" moments here and there. Don't get me wrong, there's plenty of those scenes, but most of the show is "so bad, it's bad". It becomes confusing and dull. Powers that the characters can use are often neutralized in the most convenient manners. Some are so specific it's almost funny.

The show has a few saving graces. Its first and second episode are rather good, and the music provides a great soundtrack (that, rather often, feels out of place; jazz doesn't make the best music when fighting stone titans). Visually, there's nothing that bad, unless you're not a fan of poorly proportionate breasts. Rin makes a good character

Overall, there is almost no reason to watch this show. The enjoyable moments are few and far between. If you want something that occasionally swings into the territory of Ed Wood or Tommy Wiseau, you may find some enjoyment here. Just don't go in expecting something with actual potential. I did, and it turned into something proved to be the worst anime I've ever finished. Mercifully, it's ten episodes long only, so if you want to join in this horror show, it won't take you too long.
